In the stirring, highly anticipated first volume of his presidential memoirs, Barack Obama tells the story of his improbable odyssey from young man searching for his identity to leader of the free world, describing in strikingly personal detail both his political education and the landmark moments of the first term of his historic presidency,a time of dramatic transformation and turmoil. Obama takes listeners on a compelling journey from his earliest political aspirations to the pivotal Iowa caucus victory that demonstrated the power of grassroots activism to the watershed night of November 4, 2008, when he was elected 44th president of the United States, becoming the first African American to hold the nation's highest office. Reflecting on the presidency, he offers a unique and thoughtful exploration of both the awesome reach and the limits of presidential power, as well as singular insights into the dynamics of U.S. partisan politics and international diplomac

4.5 stars, this was full of information, wasnÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢t too dry, and I am always partial to a narration by the author - but especially for this one, as one could probably tell from his time as president, heÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢s so compelling to listen to. It was so long, though! I felt like I was reading it forever, even though really it was only 8 days. I will say, my audio checkout ran out part way through and I decided to just finish it as an ebook because I still had my library copy, and that made the end feel even slower. IÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢m typically a very fast reader, but this was pretty dense and lengthy.
I definitely see why heÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢d choose to break it in two, I donÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢t know how I wouldÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢ve felt had this been both terms and I was still reading. IÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢m definitely interested in the second installment and will probably buy the audiobook next time, or start earlier after I get my library copy
